No eating in the public transportation

821 views. 2012-6-27 08:32 |

I believe you have the experience of smelling others’ breakfast in the public buses or subway. I take subway everyday and always see some people enjoy their breakfast but I think they really annoy others with the unpleasant smell. People should be aware that this is public place, and in the closed cabin the fresh air, clean environment are quite important to everyone, especially at the rush hour when the cabin is very crowded. We can have breakfast at home, or bring the food to office canteen.

In some countries eating in pubic transportation is illegal, you will get a serious penalty if you break the laws. Last Spring Festival my family traveled in UK with a tour group. Every we take the big bus, the guide told everyone hot food was not allowed in the bus. Even we need to ask the bus drive to agree we take some cold food like bread and sandwiches because we have no time to finish after the busy shopping.

Now Shanghai is already an international city on the business, trading, industry and also finance but we also need to improve the level of city software-urban civilization, especially in the details such as no eating in the pubic transportation. I hope the city management shall set up the laws or rules and the citizens shall be aware of it by self.

You are right. The smell of different spicy sauce or food can be annoying inside the air-conditioned cabin of subway or buses. Eating anything should not be allowed. In Hong Kong, if you eat anything on public transport, you would be immediately stopped and fined 400 yuan. You would be fined more if you do it again. The  subway and trains in Shanghai are quite similar to Hong Kong, so they have to enforce these rules strictly.

True Singapore is very strict about public hygiene and cleaniness, but it is too extreme and violate the normal rights of Singapore people. Somebody drop litter near your home then you can be fined unless you can find the person who dropped the rubbish.
